This is what The "bc" magazine (Asia's Hottest Entertainment Magazine) had to say, about our girl Shugga.
There's something particularly galling about the hypocrisy of a phallocentric and un- photogenic industry like the international club scene turning any dialogue about female DJs into a 'you would or you wouldn't' conversation. So the British Dance Fraternity voted DJ Shugga the 2nd Sexiest Person in Breaks in a 2001 Skoolfish Productions survey. For one thing, who cares? The DJ's meant to be an ethereal presence, not a pin up. For another, I bet she's really, really, really glad that a group of mashed fuckwits thinks she's pretty.
An ex-dancer who's been bothering the US breaks scene since 1997, Shugga was responsible for the cunningly titled Shugga Sugar on the slightly less cunningly titled label Funk Dawg Records. She also provided the vocals for 2002's Bitch Slap, a complex deconstruction of modern feminism. Sounds to me as if there are some (Hatters) over in Asia!
